Here are some quotes from JTC's online guestbook, including comments from women who've been through the program, as well as family members. To visit the online guestbook, click here.
"I was looking for a rehab [program] for my friend and I realized I couldn't send her anywhere else but the same place that helped me so much. I attended the Jean Tweed program in September of 1999. It's now 2006, and I have to say all that I learned while being there has helped me stay sober the whole time. I just wanted to thank all the women who made that experience a wonderful one, considering the circumstances."
"My wife is attending your program at this time (February, 2006). We have been dealing with her struggles with alcohol for three years now and it has not been easy. I have read all of the entries in the book and am very hopeful she will find her way like so many of the participants through your program. I look forward to working with her in her recovery and a happier life together. Thanks so much JTC for being there and helping my wife find her way."
"Thanks in part to your programs, my daughter-in-law has been drug and alcohol-free for over a year and a half. I now have a beautiful, healthy 4-month-old granddaughter, and my son's family is happy and stable."
"To Jean Tweed I owe so much. My mother had been experiencing an addiction to drugs and alcohol for over 20 years when she finally hit 'rock bottom.' Jean Tweed is where she started her recovery, and to this day still refers to things that were learned there. She has been clean for 2 years in January. She is an avid part in others' recovery, sharing her story with both those new to the road of recovery, and those that were a part of the addiction from the 'outside' like myself. If it was not for Jean Tweed taking her in, I truly believe that she would be dead. But she is not; she is a wonderful mother, friend, and grandmother. Our relationship is the best now than it has ever been in our entire lives. For those just starting their new journey to a better life, take this story and remember it because your recovery is not just making your life better - it is brightening those around you as well. Be strong and, as I have heard my mother say so many times, just take it one day at a time."
